If you havn't had this yet on the galaxy then your lucky ! once you repaired pipe, as above it's under the sill trim get hold of some newspapers and put under mats and just keep replacing untill dry, it works a treat and dried mine in no time ( another tip i found on here) I think this issue may be caused by the rear pipework freezing up while the front inc pump are still ok and the pressure just blows the joint apart, but then i could just be talking through ones bottom! ;) Edited January 22, 2010 by mikej

dont know what model galaxy you have but my mk1 had the drains in the wheel arch blocked so letting water into the car.

It is the drains for the water from the bottom of the windscreen and it is common for them to block up.

Its not the drains

The pipe that goes to the rear washer runs through the inside of the sill on the passenger side

you have to take the sill trim off to get to the pipe where the joint is.

ahh garibaldi, Remember Teresa had this problem and it wasnt the dreaded split pipe.. took her yonks to find the problem if i recall correctly, and iirr, it was blocked drains/holes leading into the car??

 

But most usually it is the pipe .

This is my first post so here goes.

On my galaxy it was the drain off pipes that connect to the gully on the sunroof that had come off and were allowing the water to run down the roof and door seal under the carpet and in to the comparment under the passenger seat. Once i pushed the pipe back on it stopped. It a bit of a tricky job to do as you have to get between the roof lineing but it will fix it. Hope that helps.
